Military posters is a term often used wrongly to describe most Military prints. Military posters are usually large glossy Military images produced on thin paper and have no border or title. Many Military Posters are photographic and are produced in their thousands.

Military Poster is often used by buyers when they mean Military art print. The main differences are: Art paper quality. Most Military prints are produced on 250 to 350 gsm acid resistant art paper and produced in quantities of 800 to 1200. Even what we describe as open editions are produced in these quantities in line with the number of reproductions our copyright owners have agreed to. Also, there will be titles and usually some historical text and artists name below the image, which is not likely to be present on a poster.

Although we offer over 12,000 Military art prints, we do not offer more than a handful of poster type Military items, as the quality would not justify being mixed with our superb range and quality of signed limited edition Military art prints.

But for the full range go to our main online store at www.directart.co.uk for the best Military, Military and naval art prints.

Sacrifice at Mirbat, Dhofar, Oman, 19th July 1972 by David Pentland.

When 250 well armed and trained rebel tribesmen attacked the small SAS outpost at Mirbat few would have given good odds on their survival. At the height of the battle Corporal Labalaba and Trooper Savesaki, both Fijians and both wounded fought off relentless assaults by the attacking Adoo. Firing a World War II vintage 25pdr field gun at point blank range Labalaba finally fell to a snipers bullet just as Captain Kealy and Trooper Tobin reached the gunpit to aid its defence. Within minutes however Tobin was dead, but Kealy and the remaining defenders critical position was saved by the timely arrival of 2 Omani Strikemaster jets, and helicopters carrying 24 men of G Squadron.
